Historical Data

The Gemini marketplace conducts auctions for certain trading pairs every day (including weekends and holidays), which foster moments of elevated liquidity and price discovery. The Auction file contains the auction-only order book for the 4pm ET BTCUSD, ETHUSD, or ZECUSD auction on the Gemini exchange on weekdays (non-NYSE holidays).

The auction-only order book supports both market and limit orders. These orders rest on the auction-only book until the auction runs. Auction-only orders may be placed up until the auction runs but may not be cancelled after the final indicative price is published at 3:50pm ET

Only auction-only orders that were explicitly accepted to the book show up in this file. Orders that were placed but rejected due to insufficient funds or self-cross do not show up in this file. There is not an explicit close event portrayed in this file. An auction-only order is closed and off the books when that order id is either cancelled or filled with no quantity remaining. Fill events are portrayed as a single rows for each order filled during the auction; both continuous book and auction book orders may be filled. Auction-only orders are distinguished by the Execution Option value auction-only.

Volatility skew data allows users to analyze relative option pricing levels over time series by comparing “virtual” option strikes with identical time to maturity and levels relative to spot. Our Volatility Skew files show the implied volatility levels of virtual options expiring at constant maturities, with option strikes defined by either moneyness (% from spot) or by option delta. These files allow for more appropriate comparison of implied volatility levels over time.
LiveVol volatility skew data is provided with either moneyness increments (5% steps from spot from 0-60%, with additional values at 2.5% from spot) or delta increments (5 delta increments for both calls and puts). Standard maturity periods range from 30 to 360 calendar days.
An auxiliary set of skew index data will be provided with each purchase. Skew indexes represent a measure of option skew by symbol and maturity for a particular day. Delta skew data is used to generate the skew index metrics: for example, SKEW90 represents the (IV of 25 delta put – IV of 25 delta call)/(50 delta call IV) for virtual options expiring in 90 days.
